In the coming year, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), the legislation that created welfare reform, will be reauthorized. Hear from the most important stakeholders in this process – low-income mothers and their children - about how we can strengthen our nation’s safety net, while creating pathways out of poverty for low-income women and their families.

Also hear from speakers with the Center for Law and Social Policy, the Applied Research Center, Legal Momentum and the National Council for Negro Women, who will share the latest research on how low-income mothers and their families have fared under welfare reform.

Hosted byWomen for Economic Justice (WEJ) A national network of grassroots, low-income women-led organizations working to end poverty under TANF reauthorization and to achieve economic justice for low-income women, their families, and communities.
